Watched it again. The ref did everything he could to help Yarde. Disgusting officiating.
yes he was quite considerate towards the almost unconscious yarde ...
But in fairness to yarde he went 8 rounds at a fair old pace vs a guy who will end up a "goat " whilst joe smith Jr who was a beltholder got blasted to bits in 2 rounds .

The ref helped Yarde back to his corner at one point. After the knockdown he gave him the full eight count, asked him if he was OK, didn't get a reply, then asked Anthony to walk to him. If he was the away fighter, he wouldn't have been afforded that luxury.
